Catalogue reference BS 14-520-02 — DOYEN left,for children 170mm 17cm, supplied to hospitals, distributors, and OEM partners.
Eugène-Louis Doyen, a French surgeon active in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, contributed several instrument designs to the surgical canon. Doyen retractors come in two main types: the rib raspatory used in thoracic surgery to elevate the periosteum from a rib, and the abdominal retractor used during laparotomy. The rib raspatory pattern is asymmetric — left and right variants — with a curved blade that follows the rib’s profile. The abdominal Doyen has a broad curved blade that retracts viscera during exploration. Both patterns remain in use; the rib raspatory is a standard thoracic instrument used during open thoracotomy where minimally invasive approaches are not feasible.
